- You may be looking for the Hunters in The Curious Tale of Spring-Heeled Jack.
Hunters were dangerous predators that were believed to be native to the Althosian system. They lived in the upper atmosphere of Nicaea. They were presumably destroyed when the System was annihilated by Kopyion Liall a Mahajetsu.
Appearance[]
Hunters were large hairy humanoids with lots of teeth. (PROSE: The Pit)
Abilities and behaviour[]
They could travel through space and were naturally attracted to rifts in time and space. They were also immune to time-based afflictions. Hunters generally hunted alone, since they could easily kill a humanoid by themselves, and often kidnapped small children and animals. They generally hunted by smell. They could also spit out a gold, acidic, rapidly hardening paste, which they used to trap their prey. (PROSE: The Pit)
